Kennerlys - Australian Accountants Directory

Kennerlys story begins in the 1970’s when Don Kennerly & John Nicholson started “Kennerly Nicholsons” in West Perth. Kennerly Nicholsons fast became the largest untied firm in Perth. The firm remained based in West Perth until the 1980’s at which time they merged with Ernst & Whinneys. As part of this move many of the staff relocated to the city. Meanwhile, Don Kennerly moved on to private consulting. Known for his personal touch and great PR skills, Don built strong loyal relationships with many clients and in the late 1980’s he decided to return to his roots in West Perth and start Kennerlys. Joining him in this venture was our longest serving team member, Sue Peterson, who had worked with Don at Kennerly Nicholsons. Kennerlys as it stands now commenced on the 15th of June 1990.

Kennerlys has been supporting and providing services to prominent and successful Perth business people since its inception. A testament to their client service, many clients have been with them for 20 even 30+ years and KENNERLYS have handled their affairs through the generations of their family businesses. The company’s commitment shown to our clients over the past 30 years and dedication to timely service and quality is to be continued whilst adapting with the times to offer our clients innovative solutions.
